About: Hi! I’m Tram, and I’ve been loving and caring for dogs for nearly 3 decades. With 29 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all shapes, sizes, personalities, and quirks—from playful puppies to wise seniors. Animals aren’t just pets—they’re family. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, a cozy cuddle session, or specialized care, I tailor each experience to meet their unique needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love creating a safe, happy space for animals to thrive. Whether you’re traveling or just need a helping hand, I’ll treat your furry companion like one of my own—with lots of love, playtime, and a few extra belly rubs. Let’s make tails wag together! I work from home with a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be present and attentive to your pet throughout the day. My typical routine includes a morning walk or play session, regular potty breaks, and lots of cuddle or enrichment time in between. I take breaks often, so your dog will never be alone for long. I can easily adjust my day to fit your pet’s needs—whether that’s extra walks, medication, or just companionship. Your pet will have a calm, loving, and structured environment while you’re away! Your dog will be cared for like family in a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I have a gated backyard with plenty of space for them to roam, play, and soak up the sunshine. If your pup is crate-trained or you prefer they have a crate for rest time, I can absolutely accommodate that. I also live near McLaren Park, which means your dog will enjoy scenic walks, fresh air, and lots of opportunities to sniff and explore! Whether your pup needs quiet companionship or high-energy play, I tailor the day to their personality and needs. Their safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities.

“It was my first time using the Rover app and I was nervous choosing a new cat sitter for my babies while I was away on vacation. Kayla was very kind and did a meet & greet with the kitties before accepting the job. I felt very comfortable and at ease with her attention to detail when giving instructions on their food and daily routine. She went above and beyond to make sure the cats felt comfortable and gave them some love while I was away. They both loved her and she sent me photos of each day to make sure they were okay. She takes care of your pets as if they are her own. Thanks Kayla for everything you did for Cheshire & Panther! I’m so happy I met Kayla through Rover and plan to book with her in the future.”


“A saving grace! I needed last minute (literally a few hours before) help to exercise Goose. Andrea was reliable, prompt, and gave ample updates. Thank you for making my day a little less crazy.”



About: Hello! I believe, as many others do, that the therapeutic importance of animals in our lives is immeasurable. I was raised with family dogs as a child, and my appreciation for what they do for us has only increased. I have dog sat for friends who appreciate my cleanliness, reliability, and enthusiasm for pets. I seek to provide an experience that is professional AND fun for all involved. Thanks for your consideration! -Matt I am currently a student who is off for summer break so as it stands, I have ample time on weekdays and weekends to care for your pet! I am fastidious about following pet owner instructions regarding the care for their animal and use of their home. I am organized, clean, and respectful of pet owners’ personal space.

“Brock was very attentive and comforting during his time with cash. He was patient and provided good updates. I am glad I was able to find Brock and he was able to comfort Cash during a stressful time.”


About: I have been taking care of dogs with my grandmother from a very early age. I developed a love for animals in particular dogs and take any chance I can to volunteer or spend time with them. I am a recent college graduate who is working part time. I work in the mornings and have availability most afternoons. Weekends are also a great time. I understand each pet is different with different needs. The important thing is to be patient and let the pets familiarize themselves with you before attempting to create a change in their routine.

About: Hi! My name is Sara. I am a Sf native so I know the city like the back of my hand. Also I know what dog parks are the best! I used to have 3 large dogs (my sister has 2 tiny pups) so my ability to handle different kinds of situations either with other owners or dogs is something that I have much experience in. I don't mind getting dirty or doing whatever it takes to keep dogs safe and having fun. I have been around dogs all my life and get along great with them! I always say a dog can read you better then any person! I have a daytime job that is flexible and changes weekly. It also helps me be able to take late notice requests if needed. If you are around the area and need a urgent or last minute walk I will always try to help. Reach out and if i can I will. Life happens. Please just communicate with me and I will do my best to make anything work. I have a 70 percent to full time job but hours vary so I tend to have alot of mornings open. I also am able to do late night walks if needed. I work very close to home so can be there if needed. I used to have a dog and adjusted my whole life to her especially being there more as she became older. She loved car rides and smelling everything in the park. I will adjust my environment and activities to the dogs needs. I will try to take pups days that I am off work however if I do work my time after and before is taking them for a car ride to a park or walking them to a neighborhood park. I will only do 1 dog at a time in my home so they have my undivided attention. In someone's else's home I will take care of your home and however many pets you have. I will follow directions to a T since I know how important routine is. As well as health. I will communicate to make sure that it will be good fit before we confirm.

“We've relied on Clive twice: once for a two-week trip where he stayed in our house and took care of our 17-year-old dog and two cats, and once where he dropped in for a week to take care of the cats only. Both times Clive provided excellent care. He administered two kinds of medicine to the dog, and he went above and beyond to also handle household tasks such as watering our plants. Clive is a true professional who takes his job seriously, and I have no hesitation in either recommending him or relying on him again.”


About: I am a pawrent of one doggo and two gattos. I love to pet sit for my friends (cats, dogs, bunnies, anything w a heartbeat). Grew up on a cow farm and married a vet tech, my dark clothes have always had some sort of pet fur. Given special diets, special care and homemake treats. Currently a part-time lifeguard, so tons of time to hangout w your fur baby! I mostly work mornings (5am-9am weekdays, 7am-11am weekends). Any time outside of that is available to be spent caring for pets :) I assure the pet is acquainted and comfortable with me in order to work together. Love to bring homemade treats and make a puzzle for them to find it. Will always adhere to any restrictions and make sure we are on the same page.

About: I’ve taken care dogs for 3 years as I have an adorable 3 year old maltipoo. Meanwhile, I’ve also taken care of my neighbors’, family members’, and friends’ dogs as well! I’m currently a college student at UC Berkeley and during holidays or when I come back to the city, I am available to help out! Boarding, dog walking, and daycare are all available! I have a fenced backyard and a small sprayed maltipoo dog that can keep urs company! If needed we can also crate your paw buddies as well! We live 5 minutes away from the park, so it’s guaranteed they will get a lot of exercise in!

“Kennia was great! She was very communicative and sent photos/videos whenever she checked in on my cat twice a day. He's usually pretty shy but he warmed up to her very quickly!”


About: I have been around dogs my whole life, caring for them since I was born. I’ve always helped friends and family with their dogs, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. As a jewelry designer who spends much of my time working on my computer, pet care fits naturally into my routine. Caring for dogs gives me a chance to step away from work, take refreshing walks, and enjoy quality time with them. Their presence brings joy and balance to my day, making my routine more fulfilling. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort by keeping spaces secure and pet-friendly, following care instructions, and creating a calm environment where pets feel happy and loved.

About: I have eight years of experience working with dogs and know how to handle a dog on a leash. I am good at watching dogs in a group setting I am watching them making sure that no fights break out I can prevent fights from happening I am very knowledgeable of dog behavior. I have also worked at many different doggy daycare/boarding facilities so I very much understand dog behavior and can watch multiple dogs at once. I also like watching other dogs interact with each other before I let the dog that I am walking interact with one of those other dogs so that nothing bad happens. I am available to walk your dog anytime of day any day of the work weekends included as this will most likely be my main source of income for the time being Unfortunately, I don’t have a big enough yard for a dog to run around, but I do live near a dog park that’s fenced in. I would prefer if I could watch the pets at the client’s house, as it would be very beneficial for the pet as they are more in the house they live in.

Tram K.
“Tram is the kind of person you can trust completely with your furry family member. She's responsible, calm under pressure, and has a natural ability to connect with animals.

I can’t recommend her enough.”

Matthew F.

“Matt took great care of my charming but highly-strung dog (Steve) a bunch of times. He covered all the basics (food, walks, judiciously-administered treats, updates) and more, becoming one of Steve's favorite people. Matt is a true dog-lover, a good person, and a very, very responsible sitter. If I hadn't moved out of the area, I would still absolutely rely on Matt's care and friendship for Steve. And I know for sure that Steve misses him! ”

Sara C.
“Sara is a loving and caring friend to both dogs and humans. She is extremely bright, responsible, and excellent at communication. All these qualities show through the relationships Sara has built with her own family dogs and how she interacts with unfamiliar dogs. Since Sara is able to have quality intimate interactions, she is also great at conflict management and has expertly de-escalated many social situations with dogs as well as humans. Sara is a joy to be around so I know she would be wonderful in a caregiving role.”

Anousha M.
“I’m one of those people that treats their dog like their child - which is to say that I only leave them in the care of people that I trust wholeheartedly. Anousha is one of the *very* few people I know for sure will take good care of my dogs. She has assisted with the care of my dogs over the last 7 years. Here are a few of the reasons why I can rest easy when my dogs are in her care: 1. Anousha is caring. She believes 100% that pets are family and she holds herself to an exceptionally high standard when it comes to taking care of them. Your pet’s well-being is genuinely important to her, because she cares about and respects your pet as its own sentient being and also as a family member that you love! 2. Anousha is responsible and reliable. She simply does what she says she will do when she says she will do it. If anything changes with the plan, she lets you know. 3. Anousha is experienced. She grew up in a home with many pets and is happiest when she’s around animals. For our family alone, she has taken care of my senior dog, my energetic dog, my dog when she had a long term chronic illness, and has also given all of my dogs medications at varying points in time. She has experience with reactive dogs, dogs with disabilities, and rescue dogs. 4. Anousha is attentive. When my dogs have been under the weather, she has helped ensure their stability by keeping a close eye on them. If there is ever anything off with their behavior or energy, she lets me know. She easily matches the vibe of your pet - she is calm and relaxed when needed and energetic and fun when it’s time to play. 5. My dogs love Anousha. A dog’s heart doesn’t lie. My dogs are always happy and excited to see Anousha, which wouldn’t be the case if she didn’t take great care of them. I could go on and on, but I think you get the picture. You won’t regret working with Anousha and your dog will thank you for it!”


Sylvia C.

“Sylvia did a drop in with my cat while I was away. Very professional during the meet and greet. Followed all instructions. Even got a photo of my shy kitty. Thank you!”

“Kelsey watched our Jasper while we were on vacation; and wow did she do an awesome job! When we picked him up, his demeanor was super calm and relaxed; which is pretty rare for him. I highly recommend Kelsey’s services for boarding for you and your fur babies needs. Thanks Kelsey, you rock!”


Antonio P.
“Antonio is the absolute best dog walker ever (and we've had many). He is patient, kind, and very considerate as we have an 8 year old pitbull who is a bit of a challenge. He got to know our dog's personality and worked with him in such a positive encouraging way. In a short time, we saw a great change in how well our dog behaves (so much better), walks on a leash (without pulling), and comes when he is called. Thanks to Antonio we are able to enjoy are dog so much more and our dog looks forward to and waits for his walks with Antonio.”
